The signings come as Capital & Regional continues its £3 million refurbishment of the north west corner of The Mall Blackburn which includes a new 15,700 square foot Pure Gym facility due to open in February 2016.

Andrew Haughey, retail development director at Capital & Regional, said: “It’s been a busy few months at The Mall Blackburn and we are constantly working hard to further enhance the shopping experience for our customers, and improve and diversify the retail offer.”

With 600,000 square feet of retail space, The Mall Blackburn was acquired by Capital and Regional in 2004 and is now let to over 100 occupiers, including Primark, Debenhams, BHS and Next.
